PARTING-OFF SYSTEM OPTIMIZES COOLANT DELIVERY: Seco Tools LLC’s 150.10-JETI parting-off system incorporates HSS blades, Jetstream Tooling technology and tool blocks with coolant inlets. Together, these elements provide high-pressure coolant a straight path to the cutting edge and an optimized means for effectively penetrating the friction zone between the cutting edge and workpiece, according to the company. The HSS blades, available in 20mm (0.787″) and 25mm (0.984″) sizes, maximize insert stability. The blades accommodate insert widths from 2mm (0.079″) to 6mm (0.236″).
